this city Monday with four young girls, ma
tives Of Alaska, who are to be educated as
toachers in Northfield, Mass. q He also
brought two boys, who are to be placed in
the Industrial school at Carlisle, Pa. The
cation Is borne by Mrs. Eliot +. Shepard,
and yesterday the entire party wentt to her
residence on Fifth avenue. The girls
names are Olga Hilton, aged fifteen, u Rus.
sian creole; Minnie Slotter, age twelve;
Flora Campbell. age fifteen, all half
breeds; Blanche Lewis, aged sixteen, full
blooded. rhe girls had never seen any of
the adjuncts Of civilization, and the inter
ior of Mrs. Shepard's house was a revela-
tion to them. She received them kindly
and in little while had them all about
her. All except Olga Hilton belong to
Thingets, class of people who are lighter
than the people of Alaska and quite dis
tinct. Mrs. Shepard sent them to st. Steph-
ems Hotel. where they are stopping,
in her carriage, and on their arrival
they found their room loaded
with Christmas presents, which this chari-
table lady had sent there during their alb
sence. II was revelation to the girls
born in Alaska aud differed very much
from the other Christmas days of their
past. The only other girl from Alaska in
the country is Fanny Edwards, who has
been for year at school in New Jersey.
She came over last night to meet tho girls
from her old home, and n merry time tn, v
had. They all speak English very well
and are bright and intelligent. They al e
all dark except the little Russian creole,
who is a perfect blonde, and have remark
ably small and we'll shaped hands and
feet. They have been for some time in
mates Of the school at Sitlka, and most Of
them come voluntary to this school to es-
cape the degrading influences of their
homes. Dr. jackson is the U. S. General

praise of his abilities were Senators

litical opponents, who had served with
him in the Senate, and had learned to
respect his powerful intellect and
strong grasp Of the subjects to which
he turned his mind. Against such
q character as his, and against such
abilities, tho mean, snarling words Of

of our self-sustalning immigrants.
The Northwest is already growing
weary of paying largess to Pennsyl-

4 n.
, BALTIMORE, Mn, Dec 23-For the first
time since the oyster navy was organized
here its vessels succeeded in routing the
dredgcrs. II has beon only two days ago
that ono of the State vessels was driven
from Swan Point, on the Chester river, by
the dredgers, who had assembled In force,
and, being supplied with plenty of ammu-
milton, forced the steamer to retire. The
captain, intent on having revenge, came
here for arms and men, and thus rein
forced lie hurried back to the scene
OF war; Late Wednesday night tho
dredgcrs unaware of the danger monacing
them, were working quietly on the forbid.
den ground when tho Hamilton hove In
sight. Then there was u lively scamper-
ing anchors were hauled in and sails set,
and in q iify the pirates were dancing
away at ratio of speed that dcficd pursuit
One OF the schooncrs was singled out and,
after an exciting chase, brought to, but
not until several volcys had been fired into
her. Last night the Hamilton returned and
again succeeded in corraling drcdger
which had just got well fixed for work.
The captain did not think OF an attack
from the rear, SO he dropped anchor
about half a mile from shore, so as not to
be in reach of the big howitzer which the
tongmen had placed on an elevation, and
with which they kept the intrudcrs from
coming near shore. When, therefore, the
Hamilton suddenly made her appearance
the pirates were literally between "tho
devil and the deep, blue sea-" to go for
ward counting destruction by the howitzer;
retreat was cut Off, and the only thing was
to fight or surrender. 1t was finally rcsoly,
ed to make dash for liber-
ty. Up went the sails and
away few the pirate. Two vollcys were
fired into her us she dashed within twenty
yards of the steamer and right across her
bow. The schooner was feet and the wind
in her favor, and before third volley
could be fired she was showing her heels
to the discomfitted steamer captain. The
pirates sails were rddled, but she got
| away. A State vessel is now stationed ut
